If something
goes wrong ...
Before contacting your Service Centre or Installer, check the problem guide below, there may be nothing
wrong with your cooker.
PROBLEM CHECK
Burner will not light: If all burners fail to ignite:
Check that sparks appear at the burners; a clicking noise should
be heard.
If not;
Check that the electricity supply is turned on.
If the electricity supply has failed, all burners can be lit by a match.
If only one burner fails to ignite:
Check that the burner is dry and that spillage of food or cleaning
fluid remains are not affecting the ignitor or burner ports.
Clean away any debris with a dry nylon brush such as an old
toothbrush. If a wire wool pad has been used for cleaning around
the burner ensure the ignitor is free from any stray strands. Any
water on the burner should be dried with a cloth or kitchen towel.
On the hotplate make sure that all the burner parts are correctly
seated.
Slight odour or small amount of smoke when
grill / oven used first time.
This is normal and should cease after a short period.
Nothing works If you find that the timer display is blank, then it is likely that there is
no electricity supply to your oven.
Check:
(i) That the main cooker wall is switched on
(ii) Other appliances, to see if you have had a power cut
(iii) The main circuit breaker for the property
Top oven, grill and main oven do not work Operating the cooker under the following conditions may cause a
